I already have the graphics of each side of the die. What I want to know is how do I show the result of each die graphically in the chat window. I would prefer to have the dice side by side in the chat if that is possible but i could work with them being vertical. I have looked in many places but could not find any help. Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the link but I am still having trouble figuring out where I need to put the file with my icons and where I need to put the state. Could you let me know where in the syntax I am supposed to place this information?

That link even provides concrete examples.

I'll (intentionally) provide you with a bad and ugly way to do what you said, in the hope that you show the desire to learn and actually reread the link provided to get a good one.

src << "You rolled a <IMG SRC=\ref['dice.dmi'] ICONSTATE='[rand(1,6)]'>"

Thank you for showing me the syntax. The link did give examples, but it did not show the single quotes around the icon file which is where I was having my problem. It's the small details that I didn't get from the link. It's kind of hard to use information if there are things that are supposedly understood before hand
